To thefe if you pleafe to contraft the Map of the 
Harbour of Tort-Royal and Places adjacent herewith 
fent, that one may fee where the Accidents chiefly 
happened, it will add much to thefe Relations. It will 
not be amifs likewife to rake Notice, That that part of 
Port-Royal which funk was towards the Harbour Sandy, 
and the Sea adjoyning deep; and that Seamen who 
were then in the Port, affure me their Part and Suffer- 
ings in the Earthquake were very confiderable. One 
Captain had one of his Boys roul'd out of one of the 
Port- holes of his Ship in its motion, by which he was 
drowned ; and moft of them loft their Anchors and 
Cables which were towards the Wharfs or Town, which 
I fuppofe came from the Sand and Houfes falling on 
them ; and they after the Earthquake rode in fewer Fa- 
thoms Water than before, and one may believe that 
fome of the Ph^emmena may be accounted for from that.
